A) FIRST OPTION
55' (5x10' of presentation for each theme interrupted by buzz group after 3 presentations)
40' of going around to find out more about each of the themes in a marketplace format with dedicated documenter at each post.
25' of coming back to plenary with 5' insights from each theme...
B) ALTERNATIVELY:
Spend 20' for each 'presentation' but in a different format than just PPT (e.g. one PPT, one Prezi, one talkshow, one interview, one storytelling).
C) OTHER ALTERNATIVE:
Do a bus stop with presentation: 5x30' - but last slot is kept for early afternoon.
D) FINAL ALTERNATIVE:
25' (5x5') highlights about each of the themes only
90' unpacking and helping refine the highlights and results in a) 45' free roaming and 45' dedicated space work (each person joining one of the themes to help work on this).
